The documentation for the PHY update [1] states:
Loop 4 times with index i
If PHY Revision >= 3
Copy table[i] to coef[i]
Otherwise
Set coef[i] to 0
the copy of the table to coef is currently implemented the wrong way
around, table is being updated from uninitialized values in coeff.
Fix this by swapping the assignment around.

====================
wireless-drivers-next patches for v5.12
Second set of patches for v5.12. Last time there was a smaller pull
request so unsurprisingly this time we have a big one. mt76 has new
hardware support and lots of new features, iwlwifi getting new
features and rtw88 got NAPI support. And the usual cleanups and fixes
all over.
Major changes:
ath10k
* support setting SAR limits via nl80211
rtw88
* support 8821 RFE type2 devices
* NAPI support
iwlwifi
* add new FW API support
* support for new So devices
* support for RF interference mitigation (RFI)
* support for PNVM (Platform Non-Volatile Memory, a firmware data
file) from BIOS
mt76
* add new mt7921e driver
* 802.11 encap offload support
* support for multiple pcie gen1 host interfaces on 7915
* 7915 testmode support
* 7915 txbf support

Use napi to reduce overhead on rx interrupts.
Driver used to interrupt kernel for every Rx packet, this could
affect both system and network performance. NAPI is a mechanism that
uses polling when processing huge amount of traffic, by doing this
the number of interrupts can be decreased.
Network performance can also benefit from this patch. Since TCP
connection is bidirectional and acks are required for every several
packets. These ack packets occupie the PCI bus bandwidth and could
lead to performance degradation.
When napi is used, GRO receive is enabled by default in the mac80211
stack. So mac80211 won't pass every RX TCP packets to the kernel TCP
network stack immediately. Instead an aggregated large length TCP packet
will be delivered.
This reduces the tx acks sent and gains rx performance. After the patch,
the Rx throughput increases about 25Mbps in 11ac.

I have received feedback that QCA6390 PCI support is working for many, and I'm
also using QCA6390 on my daily driver^Hlaptop. While there are issues still
to be resolved it's not really experimental anymore, so remove the experimental
warning from driver initialisation.

ieee80211_report_used_skb of mac80211 use the frame_control of
ieee80211_hdr in sk_buff and indicate it to another function
ieee80211_mgd_conn_tx_status, then it queue work ieee80211_sta_work,
but ieee80211_is_auth(fc) in ieee80211_sta_work check fail when the
authentication has transmitted by ath10k.
When the ath10k report it with HTT_TX_COMPL_STATE_DISCARD, it will be
set without flag IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK, then mac80211 should try the
next authentication immeditely, but in fact mac80211 wait 1 second for
it, the reason is ieee80211_is_auth(fc) in ieee80211_sta_work check
fail for the sk_buff which is not restored, the data of sk_buff is not
the begin of ieee80211_hdr, in fact it is the begin of htt_cmd_hdr.
dmesg without this patch, it wait 1 second for the next retry when
ath10k report without IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK for authentication:
[ 6973.883116] wlan0: send auth to 5e:6f:2b:0d:fb:d7 (try 1/3)

[ 6975.712962] wlan0: send auth to 5e:6f:2b:0d:fb:d7 (try 3/3)
Restore the sk_buff make mac8011 retry the next authentication
immeditely which meet logic of mac80211.
dmesg with this patch, it retry the next immeditely when ath10k
report without IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK for authentication:

ac_classify() expects a struct sk_buff* as its second argument, which is
a member of struct tx_complete_data. priv happens to be a pointer to
struct tx_complete_data, so passing it directly to ac_classify() leads
to wrong behaviour and occasional panics.
Since there is only one caller of wilc_wlan_txq_add_net_pkt and it
already knows the type behind this pointer, and the structure is already
in the header file, change the function signature to use the real type
instead of void* in order to prevent confusion.

Currently, for all devices and families, failing getting the temp
from the fw is indicated in the log as ERR.
This is too severe for two reasons:
1. The driver has a fall back - and schedules the next temp
read immediately after failing to read temp from the fw.
2. The temp read implementation in the fw is different between
HWs, and on older devices the flow is a-sync and may timeout.
Reducing the print severity from ERR to WARN will allow to
track the issue if it will appear many times, but not frighten users
if it appears once.

Return value of the iwl_mvm_load_nvm_to_nic func is not analyzed. If load
NVM to nic func fails and NVM is not loaded to fw properly, then fw may
behave badly and lead to some strange issue. This commit will analyze
return value and if load NVM to nic has failed, then the error code is
sent to the previous func, which will trigger WRT log collection.
iwl_fw_dbg_error_collect() func collects dump only if tri type is
FW_DBG_TRIGGER_ALIVE_TIMEOUT. But when Load NVM to nic function fails
trig_type is FW_DBG_TRIGGER_DRIVER. This commit also has code changes to
collect dump when trig_type is FW_DBG_TRIGGER_DRIVER.

No need to pass the dbgfs_dir just to assign it to mvm.
Assign to mvm and then call iwl_mvm_dbgfs_register.
This is a preparation towards the addition of a delayed
op_mode_start flow.
This will allow to split the op_mode_start flow.
Registration to debugfs must happen after we register to
mac80211 and the registration to mac80211 will soon be
delayed in certain cases. In order not to have to remember
the debugfs_dir in a separate variable, just set it into
the mvm structure so that it can be usable later.
Declare mvm->debugfs_dir in the iwl_mvm structure even when
IWLWIFI_DEBUGFS isn't enabled to simplify the source code.

RF Interference Mitigation is a new feature targeted to handle the
problem of interference between DDR memory and WiFi. The role of
the driver is to configure FW with the table holding a mapping
between problematic channels/bands and the corresponding frequencies.
This patch adds RFI infrastructure and adds two debugfs hooks:
- send RFI configuration command (currently with a default table) which
will reset feature in the FW
- read the table, used by the FW (which can be a subset of the table
that driver sent).
